Pay rates have been back handedly posted on Airline Apps under the news flash that Skywest Charter has joined the site:
"You’ll also enjoy pay rates of $150-165/flight hour, a $75 line check airman override, and a 20% direct 401(k) contribution"

You can bet there's going to be a lot of old geezer's that'll take that job

There’s a lot of lost pensions and portfolios out there post 9/11. You’d be surprised how many 121 retirees are flying for 135’s currently.

So, SkyWest can attribute losing pilots because of QOL?

Cute.

I would have stayed there until 65 if they allowed pilots to drop/swap/trade and actually use their vacation.
